Do the gods light this fire in our hearts or does each man's mad desire become his god?
Virgil, The Aeneid
Duty bound, Aeneas, though he struggled with desire to calm and comfort her in all her pain, to speak to her and turn her mind from grief, and though he sighed his heart out, shaken still with love if her, yet took the course heaven gave him and turned back to the fleet.
Publius Vergilius Maro, The Aeneid
Wooden ships on the water, very free and easy
Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be
Silver people on the shoreline, let us be
Talkin' 'bout very free and easy
Horror grips us as we watch you die
All we can do is echo your anguished cries
Stare as all human feelings die
We are leaving, you don't need us

After such an update or lesson, I look at how you visualized this. Without exception you command my admiration, all the more so because you not only provide us with a render but also with appropriate quotes/poem and music links.
So not only an excellent main dish, but also tasty side dishes.
I've enjoyed this 'meal'!
